ABSTRACT:
A base layer of electode made of at least a metal selected from V, Nb, and Zr, or an alloy containing such metal on an n-type GaN compound semiconductor layer. Further, a main electrode layer made of other metal is formed on the base layer. Then, an n electrode is formed by subjecting the semiconductor layer, the base layer, and the main electrode layer to a heat treatment.
